Hello guys,

I want to make a few simple graphs from my datasets but every time that I click on the Graph>Bar Chart within the dataset I am immediatedly given this message.

"Application Error: SAS Enterprise Guide has encountered a problem. We recommend that you save your work and restart SAS Enterprise Guide"

This is the technical information that SAS gives me when this happens if it is of any use:

Problem report created: Tuesday, April 7, 2015 11:07:57 AM UTC

It appears that the SAS Graph ActiveX control is not installed properly on your system.  You might need to reinstall SAS Enterprise Guide, or at least that component.  You're running the 64-bit version of EG so you would need the 64-bit version of the SAS Graph Control.

UPDATE: the same symptom can occur when you don't have all of the system requirements in place, including the proper Microsoft runtime libraries.  So a complete reinstall of SAS Enterprise Guide, including the System Requirements wizard, might be the best action.

If you need help with specific steps to reinstall this piece, I recommend working with SAS Technical Support.

Hi Chris,

Just to clarify, a complete reinstall wouldn't delete my existing projects? Thanks

No, it won't delete any work that you've saved from SAS Enterprise Guide.  Just make sure your EGP files are stored in a safe location!
